PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The lifting units are operated with alternating
or three-phase current. The governing nation-
al directives, standards and regulations (e.g.
VDE 0100) as well as the requirements of the local
energy supply company must be observed.
The person operating the lifting unit must know
where it is supplied with power and how to cut off
the supply. A residual-current-operated protec-
tion switch (RCD) must be provided.
The section entitled ‘Electrical connection’ must
be observed when connecting the product. The
technical specifications must be observed strictly.
Our lifting units must always be grounded.
If the lifting unit has been switched off by a
protective device, it must not be switched on
again until the fault has been corrected.
When connecting the lifting unit to the electri-
cal switching system, always comply with the
requirements of the switchgear manufacturer for
the purposes of electromagnetic compatibility
(EMC).
Connections may only be made providing the
switchgear meets the harmonised EU standards.
Mobile radio equipment may cause malfunc-
tions in the system.
BEWARE of electromagnetic radiation!
Electromagnetic radiation can pose a fatal
risk for people with cardiac stimulators. Put
up appropriate signs and make sure anyone
affected is aware of the danger!
2.4. Safety and monitoring equipment
The motor is equipped with a thermal winding
monitor. The lifting unit is switched off if this
gets too hot during operation.
The monitoring equipment is connected in the
switchgear at the factory.
Personnel must be informed about the installed
systems and how they work.
CAUTION!
The lifting unit is not allowed to be operated
if the winding monitoring has been removed,
is damaged and/or does not function!
2.5. Conduct during operation
When operating the lifting unit, always follow
the locally applicable laws and regulations for
work safety, accident prevention and handling
electrical machinery. To help ensure safe working
practice, the responsibilities of employees should
be clearly specified by the operator. All personnel
are responsible for ensuring that regulations are
observed.
2.6. Fluids
The lifting unit chiefly collects and pumps waste
water containing faeces. As a result, changing to a
different fluid is not possible.
Use in drinking water is not permitted!
2.7. Sound-pressure
Depending on several factors, the sound-pressure
level may vary during operation (such as installa-
tion, attachment of accessories and piping, duty
point, etc.).
Therefore, we recommend the that the end-user
should take an additional measurement at the
workplace once the lifting unit is running at its
duty point and under all operating conditions.
CAUTION: Wear ear defenders!
According to applicable laws and regula-
tions, ear protection must be worn if the
sound-pressure level is 85 dB(A) or more! The
end-user must make sure that this is complied
with!
2.8. Standards and guidelines used
The lifting unit is subject to various European
directives and harmonised standards. Refer to the
EC declaration of conformity for precise informa-
tion about these.
In addition, various standards are used as a basis
for operating, assembling and dismantling the
lifting unit.
2.9. CE marking
The CE marking is attached to the rating plate.
3. Product description
The lifting unit has been manufactured with great
care and is subject to constant quality controls.
Trouble-free operation is guaranteed if they are
installed and maintained correctly.
3.1. Intended use and fields of application
DANGER of explosion!
Gas can collect in the collection reservoir
during pumping of sewage containing faeces.
This can ignite and lead to an explosion as a
result of incorrect installation and operation.
• The collection reservoir must be undamaged
(no cracks, leaks, porous material)!
• The inlet and outlet as well as the vent must
be connected in accordance with the regula-
tions and be absolutely leak-tight!
DANGER – explosive fluids!
It is strictly prohibited to pump explosive flu-
ids (gasoline, kerosene etc.). The lifting units
are not designed for these fluids!
The lifting unit is used for backflow resistant
drainage of discharge points for buildings and
areas of land below the backflow level and, in
accordance with EN 12050‑1, is
suitable
for
pumping sewage (with/without faeces) out of the
domestic area in accordance with EN 12056‑1.
A grease trap must be provided if greasy sew-
age is pumped!
